I can't stay at home anymore today or my mood will keep going down

I feel like I can't stay at home anymore today. If I do my mood will just keep getting lower and lower. I need to get out of the house but it's too hot outside. I can't take the heat very well. It's very exhausting for me. And even if I go outside I don't just want to wander the streets. So, what do I do? Where do I go? My husband is probably gonna go see his parents after work, so I can probably go with him but that will be after 9 pm. And he didn't even tell me that he is going or ask if I wanna come too. I just saw him take a cup he got for his dad with him when he left for work, so that probably means he will go. Wonder if he will tell me though or ask if I wanna come along. Even if I end up going with him I still have to occupy myself with something that will perk me up until then. I don't know what to do. Just sitting on the computer or watching TV will not help. And I am not really much in the mood to read.

I thought of that but that means spending money. Though I can be strong and not cave in to buying anything.

I felt much the same way this morning. Fortunately, I had an errand to run and a Lions Club meeting to go to. That got me out of the house for several hours.

That's good. I gotta try to get myself out of this mood instead of just swimming in it.

@lovebuglena that's quite common here, too, just window shopping.

@hereandthere Sometimes window shopping is good but sometimes it is disappointing when I ended up not getting anything. Almost like I wasted my time for nothing.

I ended up going to a department store to look at shoes and handbags. Didn't get anything though.

What's going on, Lena? Do you want to talk about it? Go to the mall and people watch or just take a ride around. Take a nap. That's always good when you're down. Do you feel better after you ate?

Sometimes when I am very down I can't do anything... no desire for it. I ended up going shopping but mainly because I thought hubby was gonna go see his parents and I wanted to go with him. That never happened 'cause his parents were too tired from their flight. Not that I enjoyed shopping a whole lot but at least it got me out of the house.

Take a ride around the town or neighborhood. I have done this many times. A change in scenery does a world of good.

@CarolDM That's why i hate summer. The heat, the humidity, the sweating. I prefer it nice and cool. Or cold.

I don't drive. But walking around and seeing the sites can be good I guess. Not when it's very hot though. I don't do the heat well and hate sweating buckets.

I'm sorry to feel that way, but I think your husband needs to dedicate more time to you and make your mood better.

I read a little on my way to the department store I decided to go to. I don't usually read on buses because it can make me feel nauseous but it didn't this time.

Sometimes; I usually call somebody and talk with them for a little while when I start feeling like this. I found out that it helps me out some.

I should probably try that sometime. But not sure I wanna call my mom about it. And no one else I am ok with calling.
